The first thousand and seventy-three chapters of the unknown past
In the courtyard, Lin Ze put his hands on the table, leaned forward, stared at Zhuang Zhou dimly, and said in a bad tone: "Give me the essence of heaven and earth."
I think he, Mr. Lin, is very intelligent. He has always lost his wife and lost his troops. When has it ever happened that he almost lost his pants like today?
My uncle could bear this tone, but my aunt couldn't either.
Zhuang Zhou, who was concentrating on drinking tea, looked up when he heard the sound and saw Lin Ze's resentful look. He couldn't help but be startled and laughed dryly: "Isn't it just that I took two essences of heaven and earth from my junior brother? Between you and me, my senior brother.
Sincere friendship, what does this mean? Why does Junior Brother have to be so pretentious?"
Lin Ze chuckled: "Senior Brother, if you want to talk about feelings, Junior Brother will have to chat with you today."
"This opportunity is what Confucian Sage and Tongtian Sword Master want, but Junior Brother will not give it to him even if he has to fight for it. Senior Brother, on the other hand, has been guarding the Jianmu Sacred Tree all day long, so how can he get a share of it?
Two percent.”
"In addition, the opportunity gained by junior brother collecting resources to support the construction of the sacred tree can be divided into ten times every ten times, which can be counted as 10%."
"Even when junior brother asks me a question and thinks that it is not easy for him to practice, he offers me an opportunity. How much do you want junior brother to do?"
"I remember back then, when you and I, senior fellow apprentices, met for the first time..."
…
Half an hour later, Lin Ze talked a lot, drank several cups of tea to moisten his throat, and planned to recharge his batteries before fighting again.
Zhuang Zhou, who was less than three feet away from Lin Ze, looked at him in amazement, as if he had discovered a new world, and his evaluation of his junior brother's shamelessness increased several notches.
Anyway, no matter what the junior brother said, it was impossible for him to return these two essences of heaven and earth. It was like eating something in the stomach and there was no reason to spit it out.
When Lin Ze saw Zhuang Zhou's indifferent expression, he became angry. In the past, his "reciting sutras" method had always failed, but today it failed. Could it be that these two senior brothers were just pretending?
Bah, scheming man.
Seeing that Lin Ze stopped nagging, Zhuang Zhou twisted his neck and glanced at the sky from time to time.
Lin Ze's pupils shrank, and he suddenly understood. His violent breath surged out like a tide, setting off a burst of milky white mist, rushing towards Zhuang Zhou, and shouted loudly: "Brother, give me back the essence of heaven and earth."
At the same time, Lin Ze's body was operating with magical powers that defied destiny, forming a shield that enveloped himself and Zhuang Zhou.
When Zhuang Zhou saw Lin Ze's actions, he couldn't help but be stunned: "Junior brother, what are you doing?"
Lin Ze was stunned when he heard this: "Didn't Senior Brother think that there are some secrets that are inconvenient to be disclosed to the world, so he specifically hinted that I should hide the secret to avoid being spied on by outsiders?"
Zhuang Zhou asked tentatively: "Junior brother, are you referring to the secret of transcendence?"
Lin Ze said angrily: "Other than that, I don't seem to have any other secrets or anything more interesting than this."
Zhuang Zhou frowned slightly and said, "Junior brother, why are you so sure that I must know some secrets?"
Lin Ze replied simply: "Intuition."
Zhuang Zhou thought for a moment and suddenly asked: "Junior brother, how effective is this technique of concealing the secrets of heaven?"
Lin Ze was confident and replied with a hint: "Even if you are as strong as the teacher, until this barrier is broken, you will not be able to spy on what you and I say and do. Senior brother, you can rest assured."
Zhuang Zhou sighed slightly: "It seems that junior brother is bound to gain the secret of transcendence."
Lin Ze said bluntly: "Senior brother, don't forget, you have collected all the essence of heaven and earth."
Zhuang Zhou couldn't help but blush when he heard this, coughed lightly and said, "Junior brother, how can I let down your kindness so easily?"
Lin Ze waved his hand and said: "Okay, that's just a trivial matter. The art of concealing the secrets of heaven consumes a lot of money. Junior brother can't sustain it for too long. Please hurry up and talk about the serious matter."
Zhuang Zhou thought for a moment, sorted out his thoughts, and said slowly: "Logically speaking, the strongest person in this world is the saint who can keep pace with the way of heaven and sit in his own small world."
"The so-called transcendence beyond the way of heaven cannot be conceived in this world, just like a fish pond cannot raise a dragon or a pheasant cannot give birth to a phoenix."
Lin Ze asked with confusion on his face: "Senior brother, what you said seems wrong. If this world cannot breed transcendence, what's going on with that person?"
Zhuang Zhou's face was calm and his eyes were dark: "Junior brother, you know that before that person transcended, there had never been a state of transcendence in this world, and there was no such thing as a state of transcendence. That person not only created an era, but also gave people in this world unimaginable things.
ambition."
"What is regrettable is that the one who has transcended has left only a path that seems feasible, but no way to move forward."
"Teachers, Buddhas, Confucian sages, Master Tongtian, these saints who stand on the top of heaven and earth, have almost no desires or pursuits. After learning that there is still a state of transcendence, they have made plans one after another in order to achieve a breakthrough."
"The Battle of the Gods ten thousand years ago; the rise and then decline of the ancient Shinto, the great rise of humanity, the rule of the Human Emperor; the establishment and destruction of the ancient Heavenly Court, the decline and madness of the demon clan, all more or less have the shadow of teachers and them."
"Teacher, in order to find a way to break the shackles of heaven and earth, they act recklessly, sometimes causing boundless killings and sins, and sometimes accumulating countless merits and luck. For them, good and evil, right and wrong are just a way to test.
"
Lin Ze was silent when he heard this. No wonder Emperor Qin wanted to give these saints to Huo Huo in spite of the ruin of his country and his family. If it were him...
If it were him, he would probably endure it for a while and then take it easy.
Ahem, this is not important. What is important is that Dao Sage and the others have tried countless methods from ancient times to the present, but have not found a way to advance to the transcendent realm. Does the so-called advancement path really exist?
Can resurrecting the Jianmu Sacred Tree really provide the opportunity to transcend?
According to what Zhuang Zhou said, Taoist sages and others were fighting over each other. In fact, even they themselves were not sure whether it was feasible or not. They just wanted to compete.
At this moment, Lin Ze seemed to understand why Taoist saints could tolerate the existence of other saints and were unwilling to kill Buddha, Confucian saints and others.
Lin Ze also figured out one thing. Why Dao Sheng and the others would pursue the opportunity to transcend the realm. It was probably because they were already at the top and were very tired of the boring life of being unable to rise for thousands of years.
When they learned that there was another path to promotion, their dull hearts were revitalized.
Fighting with the sky brings joy to the poor; fighting with humans brings joy to the poor.
The more you fight, the more interesting it becomes, and the more you fight, the more involved you become.
To this day, the saints who speculate that there will be an opportunity to transcend the realm in the age of great strife are happy to make their own plans and collide with each other.
And the fact that resurrecting the Jianmu Sacred Tree can give you the opportunity to transcend the realm is probably another gimmick.
For some reason, Lin Ze suddenly felt that many things were missing their flavor.
Then Lin Ze's eyes became firm again, his path was completely different from that of Dao Sheng and others.
